Call me so I can tell you the story. How can I be sure it's a good story?

It could be very important. It might hold the key to some mystery or be a life - lesson that the storyteller wants to pass on.

Well, it might be a story from the person's own life. It could be about a special moment, like the time they overcame a big challenge or met someone who changed their life forever. They want to share that personal and inspiring experience with you.

Perhaps it's a spooky story. It could involve a haunted house where strange noises are heard at night, and there are ghostly apparitions. There might be a mystery to solve, like who died in the house and why their spirits are still lingering.

You can make sure you can follow the story by paying close attention to the main characters and their goals. If you know who the story is mainly about and what they are trying to achieve, it becomes easier to follow.

There's no absolute way to be sure. It depends on the speaker's integrity.

You can encourage them to ask you questions if they are unsure about any part of the story. Also, you could introduce them to people who were also part of the story so they can get more accurate information. For instance, if your story involves a group project, let them talk to your teammates to get a full picture.

Well, if you're not sure, you can briefly mention it first. Then, if the judge or the other parties think it's relevant, you can go into more details. You don't want to withhold something that might be important. At the same time, you don't want to waste everyone's time with something completely off - topic. So a short summary first can be a good approach.

To ensure it's a good photo, first of all, your appearance matters. Tidy up your hair and clothes if possible. Then, when it comes to the composition, position yourself in the center or according to the rule of thirds if you know about it. Angle your body slightly to create a more interesting look. As for your expression, a genuine smile usually works best. You can also engage with the camera by making eye contact. And don't forget to communicate with the girl taking the photo. Let her know if there's something specific you want, like a close - up or a full - body shot.

You could take notes while she's talking.

Be kind and empathetic. When you help others and form deep connections, those relationships can be a great part of your story. A story full of love and kindness is always worth telling. It shows your humanity and how you made a difference in people's lives.
